Chapter 739: A Change in the Capital

Lu Chengzhou looked back over at Gu Mang standing in the hallway as if he had sensed her presence after ending the call. The bubbling sound of the milk jolted him back to his senses, and he quickly turned off the stove and poured the heated milk into a cup.

Gu Mang approached him and rested her forehead against his back. He froze.

“Lu Chengzhou,” she said his name all of a sudden.

Lu Chengzhou turned his head slightly back to look at her. “Hm? If you’re feeling sleepy, drink this cup of milk before going to bed.”

“Lu Chengzhou.” She called his name once more and lifted her hand to tug at his clothes.

Lu Chengzhou stood there motionlessly. “What’s wrong?”

She remained quiet for several seconds before finally lifting her head and straightening herself slightly. “Nothing. I just wanted to call your name.”

Holding the cup of milk in one hand, Lu Chengzhou turned around and held her hand in his other hand. The bath had warmed her up slightly and her hand was not as cold as before.

“Let’s head back to the room first. I’ll help you dry your hair,” he told her.

“Mm,” she responded.

The couple thus returned to the bedroom.

While blowing her hair dry with the hair dryer, Lu Chengzhou softly said, “Whatever you don’t have, I’ll supply. It’ll be like nothing happened to it.”

If the Sleeping Jade was broken, he would find another for her. Whatever she wanted, he would give her.

Gu Mang stared fixedly at him before breaking into a smile and lifting his chin with a finger. “Just as long as you don’t snatch what’s mine.”

Lu Chengzhou fell silent for a moment before saying quite earnestly, “Like I said, whatever you don’t have, I’ll supply.”

She lifted an eyebrow at that.

...

Early the next morning.

News of the Sang Corporation being seized and Sang Qi being taken away by the Prosecutor’s Office for investigation made headlines on the internet.

Ming City, Yi residence.

During breakfast time, the butler came hurrying in. “Sir, something happened to the Sang family.”

Mr. Yi turned his head around and glanced somewhat nonchalantly at the butler. “Did another scandal about the company get out?”

Despite the many scandals surrounding the Sang family, none of them had impacted the company. Sometimes scandals had even helped the company’s share price.

“No.” Standing in front of the dining table, the butler sounded tense as he said, “The Sang Corporation was seized and Mr. Sang was taken away by the Prosecutor’s Office for investigation. Even their villa has been seized. All major news outlets are reporting this matter.”

Mr. Yi stopped eating. Liang Qingru turned her head around sharply and stared at the butler in disbelief. After coming to her senses, she immediately sent a maid to get her cellphone.

Sure enough, the scandal was all over the Internet. Bribery and tax evasion were a taboo and engaging in illegal transactions was egregious behavior as well.

Loving to kick a man when he was down, netizens berated the Sang Corporation and Sang Qi. The tirades got more vitriolic with time.

Mr. Yi had his phone in hand and was reading the online news with a frown. “How did this happen all of a sudden? Wasn’t everything fine just yesterday?”

His wife had no idea either. She anxiously tossed her chopsticks aside to give Mrs. Sang a call as the maid arrived with the phone.

Mrs. Sang picked up the call on the last ring. Liang Qingru hurriedly asked, “What happened to the Sang family, sis?”

Mrs. Sang was currently sitting on a bench in the corridor of the hospital. She had a hand on her face, which looked extremely haggard after a sleepless night. When she spoke, her voice sounded really hoarse. “I don’t know. Last night, Gu Mang suddenly barged into our residence with a group of men, beat Xue’er up, and left her at a police station. Your brother-in-law never returned after he went to the police station to settle the matter. Then, at dawn, the officers from the Prosecutor’s Office came to seize our home. Your brother-in-law was taken straight away from the police station by Lu Shangjin.”

Even now, she could not wrap her head around what had happened. Earlier in the morning, she called her good friends from the other prestigious families for help, but all of them avoided her like a plague and refused to take her calls.

Overnight, the entire capital had undergone great change.
